Bentō
べんとう, 弁当
Boxed Food
Don’t take Shinkansen or a long-distance train without Eki Ben (lit. Station Bento)! It’s a shame not to taste the typical local foods usually packed and sold as a Bento. Indeed there are too many to choose. After some browsing at kiosk shops, you’ll anyway pick up one. From many choices: Karashi Mentaiko Bento (Chilli-peppered Pollock Roe Bento) at Hakata Station, Kashiwa Meshi (Chicken Mixed Rice) at Kokura Station, Hippari Dako Meshi (Popular Octopus Mixed Rice) at Shin Osaka Station, Kyo No Obanzai (Kyoto Home Cuisine) at Kyoto Station, Bikkuri Misokatsu (Surprise Miso Cutlets) at Nagoya Station and Unagi Bento (Eel Bento) at Hamamatsu Station before arriving at the Tokyo Terminal, thank you! Besides Eki Ben, there are various Bento products available at supermarkets and convenience stores.
